Latest Website-News (2016/08/08): Testrun of asmFish 160726 finished. +23 Elo to Stockfish 160724 (asmFish 160726 is based on that C++ code-version of Stockfish). Really impressive result, because in both other testruns of asmFish, asmFish was around +15 Elo stronger, than the C++-Stockfish of the same "age".Next testrun: Stockfish 160802. Result not before Sunday. Stay tuned!

lways use the latest version of one day, if more than one version per day is released. And I use the version "for modern computers". (At the moment, the compiles for modern windows machines on abrok.eu are around 8% slower, so I dont use them anymore) Each Stockfish-version plays 1000 games against Komodo 10.1, Houdini 4, Gull 3, Fire 4, Critter 1.6a, Mars 3.41 and Equinox 3.3.

Below you find a diagram of the progress of Stockfish in my tests since the beginning of 2015. And below that diagram, the old diagram (May, 2013 - December, 2014). You can save the diagrams (as a JPG-picture (in originial size)) on your PC with mouseclick (right button) and then choose "save image"...The Elo-ratings of older Stockfish dev-versions in the Ordo-calculation can be a little different to the Elo-"dots" in the diagram, because the results/games of new Stockfish dev-versions - when getting part of the Ordo-calculation - can change the Elo-ratings of the opponent engines and that can change the Elo-ratings of older Stockfish dev-versions (in the Ordo-calculation / ratinglist, but not in the diagram, where all Elo-"dots" are the rating of one Stockfish dev-version at the moment, when the testrun of that Stockfish dev-version was finished).

Not long as BrainFish has passed it already
